Abstract (en)
[origin: US2019247687A1] A relatively small fire apparatus vehicle, which may have a single rear axle, is provided that includes a high-flow articulated water tower that delivers water at a rate of up to 1500 GPM (gallons per minute). The high-flow articulated water tower includes a water splitter that divides a water flow from a pump system into a pair of water flow path segments delivered through a pair of lower tower arm water pipes. The water flow path segments may be recombined in a water stem knuckle at a joint between the lower tower arm and an upper tower arm of the articulated water tower that is delivered as a combined flow through an upper tower arm water pipe and out a delivery nozzle.
